[Condition of the ventricular system in the acute period of cerebral contusions (clinico-echoencephalographic correlations)].

Echoencephalographic data on the ventricular system in 66 patients during the acute period of cerebral concussion are reported. Forty-seven of them showed statistically significant signs of mild intracranial hypertension. Fourteen out of 31 subjects who had a repeated examination prior to discharge from the hospital displayed no improvement in their echoencephalographic parameters.
